Sharing their thoughts on the track, the composers, Javed- Mohsin shared, “Creating this version of ‘Kehna Galat Galat’ was a beautiful challenge. We aimed to honour the original while infusing it with contemporary elements that appeal to today’s audience. We believe that music transcends time, and we’re thrilled to bring the magic of this iconic track to a new generation.”
Talking about Kehna Galat Galat, Sana Makbul shares, Playing the role of a married woman trapped in an abusive relationship was both challenging and deeply moving. I hope this story resonates with viewers and sparks important conversations. This music video is more than just a visual experience; it’s a narrative that reflects real struggles of many women in our country - that never gets seen or heard. I am very happy that VYRL Originals considered me to be a part of this project that honours such an iconic song while addressing significant issues.”
Talking about his latest project, the winner of Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, Karan Veer Mehra, said “Portraying a complex character like an abusive husband required me to tap into some intense emotions. It was a challenging role, because it’s of a chauvinistic man , a husband who fails to give even an iota of respect to his marriage and at every point reinforces the patriarchal mind frame that is still so prevalent in so many homes in our country. The actor in me jumped at the opportunity to play someone like that, and I had to dig deep within myself to portray this character convincingly. Add to this - the chance to work in a recreation of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan saab, rendered by the powerful vocals of Jyoti Nooran and to work alongside my good friend Sana Makbul- this is the kind of project I didn’t want to pass on. I hope our performances coupled with the absolutely stellar music leave a lasting impact on the audience.”
Filmed in breathtaking locations, including a historic haveli and serene lakes, the video captures the deep emotions of the story. Both Sana and Karan deliver powerful performances, and the surprising twist at the end will leave viewers wanting more.
